Birds of the Atlantic Rainforest of Brazil, by Joachim Theis

Violet-capped Woodnymph

Here is some color to brighten up your day.

Five hours south of São Paulo, past the urban sprawl, the factories and farms, lies Trilha dos Tucanos. Here, the landscape gives way to the Atlantic rainforest, with its dense greenery, towering trees and extraordinary variety of life.

Enjoy.

  8. You have captured Magnificent nature - some of the pastel colours and glittering shine seem to be paintings of a children’s fantasy storybook- frankly, I did not know such birds existed- thank you for sharing and saw your fantastic series thrice to get the names of the birds. Sree
